The Warehouse Renovacy - A Challenge - New on pg 2
This is my first try doing one of these challenges. I often tend to get caught up in the progression of the story and forget to take pictures. That being said, I will try my best to press that "c"...
DAY 2 was a very busy day with lots of stuff going on. Patience did some gathering and dumpster diving and Euan did some work around the house. This is a very picture heavy post, so I'm going to divide it into smaller sections.
The next day was sunny and warm. The house was looking better already without all the shrubs and broken porches. Thank goodness there was plenty of old barn wood available for free.
Patience tried her hand at dumpster diving again and Eureka! She snagged a Fortune cookie maker worth big bucks. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4667/25234235437_e95547c4a8_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4666/40073915572_4630daf969_z.jpg
All of a sudden she felt a strange twinge in her tummy. UH OH! Could it be? Yup, pregnant. No more dumpster diving for her.
She didn't really know what to do next so she simply wandered around town and ended up at a community garden. A lot of the plants were ripe and ready for picking so she helped herself to a few she thought Euan might be able to plant in his garden. Berries were her favorite. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4613/39394402264_60451c7392_c.jpg
While she was at the garden she discovered a huge pile of old green house windows. They looked in excellent shape. She took off looking for the caretaker to ask if she could have them. "These would be so nice to replace the broken windows at our house. How much would you ask for them?" "These old things," said the caretaker. "You can have them for 10 simoleons each if you haul them away yourself. Plus I'll throw in the old screen door." "DEAL!" cried Patience. She then called Euan to come help her get them home. Doesn't that look better now :) https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4714/39394397764_dc32ef560f_c.jpg
Meanwhile, Euan had been hard at work cleaning up some of the graffiti starting at the front door. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4714/39394408704_9d59527a5a_c.jpg
He then took all the wood planks off the windows, washed and re-glazed they look like new. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4657/39394409154_15ecfa5438_c.jpg
Patience came home and took a nice long soak in the tub while Euan learned to make salad for lunch, a nice break from pancakes. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4758/25234233717_fd613da87a_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4700/25234232957_a8dd202db1_c.jpg
After the dishes were cleared they tackled the upstairs graffiti. Euan would get it started with Patience following along to clean the remainder. They made quite a team and it was done in no time. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4753/39394403314_e89138039e_c.jpg
Later that evening
Finally they had some time to sit and chat. Euan wanted to talk about his plans for the house but Patience kept interrupting with talk of teddy bears and kids building blocks. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4764/25234232557_fda18510a1_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4747/25234231657_5ebc7c695e_c.jpg
Euan looked at Patience, "what are you going on about? Why do we need teddy bears and blocks? Can't you see what we need to do around here?" "Oh Euan, please stop talking about floors and walls for 5 seconds! I have something important to tell you. We are going to have a baby." https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4656/39394405224_d52e913c60_c.jpg
"A b-b-baby! Oh my goodness! You've made me so h-h-happy!" And he kissed his lovely wife tenderly. "L-l-let's t-t-ake a p-p-photo to mm-mark the occasion" https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4608/39394404784_62826f0efd_c.jpg
And they hung the photo on the wall knowing that this was probably the last time they would be alone in the house.
Note: Euan got a new trait today from all that art removal - Handy
End of day 2
